Allah Commands Us to Make Duaa

Publisher's Note

Praying to Allah and making supplications to Him are a necessary part of every act of worship. In fact, the Prophet, said that prayers are the worship itself, or to be exact, the main part of it.

Allah likes that His creatures worship Him and pray to Him, because the worship and the prayers are the physical and practical way of declaring our faith and creed that Allah alone has created us and only He is to be worshipped.
Allah has prescribed for us the ways and acts of worship. As Allah does not burden His creatures more than they could bear, the prescribed acts of worship are the minimum one should perform. But to get nearer to Allah and to attain His Pleasure, we should do something more than the prescribed acts. In this regard the prayers and supplications are the most easy acts of worship for us to adopt. We are fortunate that the Prophet has guided us about how to pray and has taught us the supplications we should make on various occasions.

In this book, the emphasis is on the style so that the children can easily understand the significance of prayers and supplications. All these are taken from the Qur'an and the authentic books of Hadeeths.

May Allah guide us all and keep us on the straight path of Islam, protect us from the evil whispers of Satan, make easy for us all the acts of worship and help us - attain righteousness.
